Best shoes ever!

This is my second pair. 10 out of 10 recommend. I struggle with plantar fasciitis and these are a life saver. I don't wear any other shoes now.

Nina H.

Recommended by Spinal Specialist

Great shoes, helped with plantar fasciitis, took about a week to get broke in and comfortable, but they are great.

Jim R.

Best work shoes

I work as a massage therapist and I'm on my feet most of the day, not only do these shoes help with my foot fatigue, they've cut my chronic low back and hip pain significantly, I recommend them to anyone who spends alot of time on their feet.

Amy S.

Love them!

I've been doing security work for eight years and these are by FAR the most comfortable work shoes I have ever worn. I've worn them for three weeks now and I feel as though I could wear them and work another five to seven years and I'm 67 years old. Thanks KURU!

FAQs

Plantar fasciitis is a chronic foot pain condition that develops when the fibrous band of tissue under our feet—our plantar fascia—becomes irritated and inflamed. Pain typically starts at the heel and can radiate through the sole of the foot. It is the most common source of heel pain in the US.
Several factors can trigger heel pain from plantar fasciitis, including too much or too little exercise. You may notice a plantar fasciitis flare up after adding mileage to your running routine or trying a new high-impact sport. A flare up might also come with a sudden increase in body weight—such as during pregnancy—due to the added pressure on your plantar fascia.
To help reduce your risk of plantar fasciitis, wear supportive footwear both around the house and during errands and other physical activity.
Your doctor can give you a detailed treatment plan based on your unique case of plantar fasciitis. That said, there are a few common at-home treatments that can help alleviate pain and inflammation for people with plantar fasciitis: relative rest from activity that causes pain, ice, massaging feet on a roller, stretches, and supportive footwear.
The best shoes for plantar fasciitis must include superior arch support, shock-absorbing foams, and a deep heel cup with plenty of cushion. Extra room in the toe box can also give your feet adequate room to lay flat naturally.
